A granddad says he’s been flooded with orders for his calendar showing off Jack Grealish’s ‘luscious calves’ - I bet you didn’t think that’s a sentence you’d be reading today, eh? You can see him show off his calendar here:
Kevin Beresford, 70, reckons he’s come up with the perfect stocking-filler in the form of 12-months of the England star’s muscular pins.
Kevin, a granddad of two, first brought out a Grealish-calf themed calendar last year and it proved to be a big hit - so he’s made another for 2023 and says the footballer’s legs are looking better than ever.

Kevin, from Redditch in Worcester, said: “It was my best-selling calendar last year and that’s what pushed me to do a sequel.
"The pictures are better this year, his calves have got better and bigger and they look more beautiful.
“I've said before Grealish has the calves of a Greek god and now they even look less hairy. Whether he shaves them I don’t know but I think they’re luscious this year.
“As the World Cup starts people will be noticing him more too. His calves are going to be on the world stage.

“In the calendar people can expect a variety of shots of Grealish showcasing his calves - from sitting down to full sprinting mode and even upside-down.
“My favourite month is January where he’s in the gym and his legs are up in the air. I don’t think he looks as sexy in this and it just makes me laugh.
"His calves have become iconic - he always wears his socks rolled down with dinky shin pads to show off his legs every match.”
Kevin said that it’s mainly fellas ordering the calendars and he’s seen a surge in sales ahead of the World Cup, which kicks off in Qatar at the weekend.

“I look at the names on the orders and they tend to be men,” the retired painter said.
“I think the guys are buying the calendars for their girlfriends because he is so dishy. I can just see their girlfriends gushing over Jacky boy.
“I don’t just get orders from Manchester, people buy the calendar from all over Britain and people from the Midlands still want one too even though he left Aston Villa.
“I think that's because the girls still love him even though he’s gone to Manchester City and obviously everyone will be supporting him playing for England too."

The Aston Villa fan started selling the calendars after Grealish left the club to play for Manchester City in 2021 in an ‘act of revenge’ but he’s since managed to forgive him and his calves.
Kevin added: "When he left Villa to go over to the dark side, I felt that he was leaving us behind.
“So, when I first printed the calendar last year, I guess it was a little act of revenge.
“But I have forgiven him now for leaving Villa and he is appearing on the world stage now, so I’ll be rooting for him and England in the World Cup.”
